Dane Olesen, Chile's Del Solar share PGA Canadian Open lead
Denmark's Thorbjorn Olesen and Del Solar each fired nine-under par 61 to seize the 18-hole lead at rain-softened TPC Toronto Osprey Valley. Olesen, a back-nine starter, eagled the par-five 18th and birdied three of his last four holes -- from just inside 14 feet at seven and eight -- after only making the field as a Monday qualifier. "I played great, but my putting was exceptional," the Dane said. "Don't think I missed any putts really out there. I definitely holed some long ones as well. It was nice to see everything go in." Tour rookie Del Solar was 10-under through 16 holes but a bogey-par finish denied him a shot at the PGA record of 58. "I was actually having fun," Del Solar said. "One of the first few rounds of the year I've just let go and go out there and play golf. "I wasn't really thinking much about the score, which that kind of led to a great score. I hit the ball great, putted it probably the best I have putted in a while. I did everything that should be done." Del Solar, ranked 316th in the world, had picked up the nickname "Mr. 57" after firing a 57 in February 2024 at Astra Championship in Colombia on the developmental Korn Ferry Tour -- the lowest-ever round in a PGA Tour-sanctioned event. The lowest score in a PGA Tour event is the 58 fired by American Jim Furyk in the final round of the 2016 Travelers Championship. For a moment on the final holes, Del Solar had a chance to match or lower that mark. Del Solar had missed the cut in eight of his prior 13 US PGA starts this season, but took full advantage of soft conditions with birdie runs from the fifth through seventh and again at the ninth through 12th holes. The South American birdied from just beyond six feet at the par-three 14th and sank a 15-footer at the 16th to reach 10-under. At 17, Del Solar blasted out of a bunker to 10 feet but missed the putt and took his only bogey. Needing an eagle at the par-five 18th to break 60, he dropped his third shot 15 feet from the hole but missed the birdie putt. American Cameron Champ was third on 62 with countryman Jake Knapp on 63 and Ireland's Shane Lowry, Americans Trey Mullinax and Ricky Castillo and Dane Rasmus Hojgaard on 64. Defending champion Robert MacIntyre of Scotland fired a bogey-free 65. McIlroy opens on 71 Second-ranked Rory McIlroy, who won the Masters in April to complete a career Grand Slam, closed with back-to-back bogeys a 71 in his first start since the PGA Championship as he prepares for next week's US Open at Oakmont. "I actually felt like I played OK," McIlroy said. "It was my first outing with a new driver and I felt like that went pretty well. I hit some drives I liked and that I liked to see, so that was encouraging. "Overall, I'm actually pretty happy with how I played. Obviously need to go a little bit lower tomorrow and over the weekend to have a chance. "I'm still trying to work on some things, but I'm OK with where everything is." Luke Clanton, a 21-year-old American paired alongside McIlroy and Swede Ludvig Aberg, fired a 70 in his pro debut.

Scheffler grabs lead at PGA Tour's Memorial Tournament
Scheffler, bidding to successfully defend his crown at Muirfield Village, rattled in four birdies in the final five holes to drop to eight under, one ahead of overnight leader Ben Griffin, who stumbled with an even-par 72. "I don't know what the scoring average was today, but I was definitely proud of the way I finished and it was really challenging," Scheffler said afterward. "Through 13 holes I felt like I was playing really good and I was only even par. Just a hard golf course." Three-time major champion Scheffler, who started the day three off the pace, was forced to bide his time after opening his round with 13 pars. But the 28-year-old American got things going on the par-four 14th, draining a 10-foot birdie putt before making a birdie four on the par-five 15th, when his third shot from the edge of the green left him with a tap-in. A par on 16 left him at two under for the day but Scheffler was soon on the move at the par-four 17th, when he stuck his approach to eight feet and then rolled in the birdie putt. Another birdie on the 18th, with Scheffler draining a 14-foot birdie putt, thrust him into a share of the lead alongside Griffin. At that stage, Griffin looked to have overcome the worst of a roller coaster round to hang on to the lead. The in-form American, chasing his third PGA Tour win of the year, had got off to a smooth start after a trio of early birdies on the sixth, seventh and eighth holes. But four straight bogeys derailed his progress and allowed the chasing pack to close. Griffin steadied the ship with back-to-back birdies on 14 and 15 leaving him on 10 under, five clear of the field. 'No lead safe' Yet Scheffler's late charge narrowed the deficit and ensured Griffin headed to the 18th with a share of the lead. He looked to have done enough to finish the day alongside Scheffler when his third shot from the greenside rough left him with a five-footer to par. But Griffin's short putt rolled wide for bogey, leaving him with the daunting task of having to chase Scheffler in Sunday's final round. "I felt like I was starting to separate myself midway through and then kind of got to some tough holes and didn't execute very well," Griffin said. "You can do that out here. Tomorrow I've got to clean up some of those holes, make sure I stay aggressive." Scheffler, meanwhile, said he had not panicked after seeing Griffin go five shots clear at 10 under earlier in the round. "No lead's safe around this place," Scheffler said. "I knew if I kept going and played a decent round, I would be in somewhat of a position to chase him down tomorrow." Canada's Nick Taylor is third on the leaderboard on five under, three behind Scheffler, following a two-over-par 74. Austrian Sepp Straka is tied for fourth on three under alongside Keegan Bradley and Jordan Spieth.
